The Vision of George Washington
"I do not know whether it is owing to the anxiety of my mind, or what, but this afternoon, as I was sitting at the table engaged in prepar- ing a dispatch, something seemed to disturb me. Looking up, I beheld standing opposite me a singularly beautiful female. So astonished was I, for I had given strict orders not to be disturbed, that it was some mo- ments before I found language to inquire the cause of her presence. A second, a third, and even a fourth time did I repeat my question, but re- ceived no answer from my mysterious visitor except a slight raising of her eyes. "Presently I heard a voice saying 'Son of the Republic, look and learn,' while at the same time my visitor extended her arm eastwardly. I now beheld a heavy white vapor at some distance rising fold upon fold. This ;;:l'adually dissipated, and 1 looked UpUll a strange scene. Before me la} spread out in one vast plain all the countries of the world-Europe, Asia, Africa, and America. I saw rolling and tossing between Europe and Ameri- ca the billows of the Atlantic, and between Asia and America lay the Pacific. (WLA..R OF 1812) " 'Son of the Republic,' said the same mysterious voice as before, 'look and learn.' At that moment I beheld a dark, shadowy being, like an Angel, standing, or rather floating in mid-air, between Europe and America. Dipping water out of the ocean in the hollow of each hand, he sprinkled some upon America with his right hand, while with his left hand he cast some on Europe. Immediately a cloud raised f.rom these countries, and joined in mid-ocean. For a while it remained stationary, and then moved slowly westward, until it enveloped I-A..mericain its murky folds. Sharp flashes of lightning gleamed through it at intervals, and I heard the smothered groans and cries of the American people. A second time the angel dipped water f.rom the ocean, and sprinkled it out as before. The dark cloud was then drawn back to the ocean, in whose heaving billows it sank fro'll view. (THE CIVIL WAm "LAthird.. time I heard the mysterious voice saying, 'Son of the Re- public, the end of the century cometh, look and learn.' At this the dark shadowy angel turned his face southward, and from Africa I saw an ill- omened spectre approach our land. It flitted slowly over every town and city of the latter. The inhabitants presently set themselves in battle array against each other. As I continued looking I saw a bright angel, on whose brow rested a crown of light, on which was traced the word UNION bear- ing the American flag, which he placed between the divided natio~, and (Continued on page seven) T~1E RICH MAN AND LAZARUS
